Epoxide ring-opening using a Grignard reagent works well when at least one side of the epoxide is sterically unhindered. When the epoxide is substituted with groups that provide steric hindrance on both sides another type of reaction dominates. What type of reaction mechanism is occurring in the reaction shown? A E1 E2 C SN1 D SN2 E Addition
